pi for a number?


that's irrational.

































 
i just hope he doesn't bet on the patriots to win the super bowl. his record on scientific wagers isn't too good:
In 1997 he conceded a 1991 public scientific wager made with Kip Thorne and John Preskill of Caltech. Hawking had bet that Penrose's proposal of a "cosmic censorship conjecture"—that there could be no "naked singularities" unclothed within a horizon—was correct.

The same year, Thorne, Hawking and Preskill made another bet, this time concerning the black hole information paradox. Thorne and Hawking argued that since general relativity made it impossible for black holes to radiate and lose information, the mass-energy and information carried by Hawking radiation must be "new", and not from inside the black hole event horizon.
.

.
By 2003, consensus among physicists was growing that Hawking was wrong about the loss of information in a black hole. In a 2004 lecture in Dublin, he conceded his 1997 bet with Preskill.

As part of another longstanding scientific dispute, Hawking had emphatically argued, and bet, that the Higgs boson would never be found. The particle was proposed to exist as part of the Higgs field theory by Peter Higgs in 1964. Hawking and Higgs engaged in a heated and public debate over the matter in 2002 and again in 2008, with Higgs criticising Hawking's work and complaining that Hawking's "celebrity status gives him instant credibility that others do not have." The particle was discovered in July 2012 at CERN following construction of the Large Hadron Collider. Hawking quickly conceded that he had lost his bet and said that Higgs should win the Nobel Prize for Physics, which he did in 2013.

@Galeb, you're going to Hell for that one.
 
Sign the beast! Hawking's got a great motor, and will have no problem with the playbook.

Matt Patricia, an aeronautical engineer from RPI, probably wet his pants when he heard that Stephen Hawking was scheduled for a visit to Gillette.

No malice intended. I'm a huge fan of Hawking. I was laughing cuz the number on the shirt is pi. It was the result of a bad sense of humor, not and evil heart.
